obama, calling him the son of african soil. and the fact that we are americans aside, so far he has been clearly the superstar of this. he talked about mandela the man, not the disembodied icon, it was a moving speech and a historical moment. >> and let me join you on this and he looked rested and it's a long flight but it's airforce one and all creature comforts on airforce one and looked great and looked in total control. the speech started out i thought in kind of a workman like fashion and then there is the moment. you start the speeches and start slow and you build and then it started to hit its stride. at the time of self reflection that this, right, this is a moment for self reflection for everyone. and then there was the line about applying the lessons that everyone including the president of the united states, time to reflect on whether i am applying the lessons of nelson mandela's life in my life. and from that moment on i thought the speech started to pick up momentum and started to soar a bit, reflections? >> i thou

but when you look at congress today, when you look at what happened to obama in the knife years since he was initially elected, i think we are very r, sadly, from mandela's legacy in the united states. i think when you look at the global stage and you ask there that is the kind of statesman that mandela really represented to the world, and you scratch your head. we are just not in that enviroent today. we don't have anyone coming to mind that would fit those shoes. they are very big shoes indeed. > yen, one of the fame he is images is of nelson mandela attending the soccer world when it came to stojakovic. what role did that play? >> he was very frail at the time. there was a big question of whether or not he would be able to make it at all. there was south africa appearing on the global stage in the same way that when bengal hosted the olympics, marking the coming of age of china as a real international actor of global capacity. it was so fitting that mandela was able to see that through for his country. i wasn't there, but i of course watched it on tv, as we all did, and you can't t
